About Bandstand Presents:

Evolving from a single quarantine project (“Off The Bandstand”), Bandstand Presents is an Austin-based production company, committed to the inclusivity, visibility, and collaboration of jazz scenes across the nation.

Founded by vocalist, bandleader, lyricist and producer, Christian Wiggs, and producer Kirk Word, Bandstand highlights not only the brilliant talents and contributions of these jazz musicians, but celebrates the personalities that are integral to the art they create.

In their first year, Bandstand has had a national presence - their work being featured through NBC, ABC World News Now, NPR Live Sessions, Playbill, Jazz at Lincoln Center, Broadway World, SXSW, JAZZIZ, Queerty, Pride.com, and Sirius XM.

In Fall of 2021, Bandstand began producing its residency series featuring guest artists including Bryan Carter, Martina DaSilva, Chad Lefkowitz-Brown, Benny Benack III, Steven Feifke, Aubrey Logan, Dan “Chimy” Chmielinski, Mathis Picard, Daniel Foose, Clark Sommers and George Fludas.

As educational and musical investment are paramount, Bandstand Presents has facilitated partnerships with developmental institutions such as University of Texas at Austin, Texas State University and the Women in Jazz Association.
